six stars. The 333min version, the master of the silent film era, transcends the existence of the era. As a representative of the French school before the war, the wanton quick cuts made people feel an incomparable visual impact. The parallel editing of parliamentary conflict and breaking waves in Napoleon's sea even surpassed Griffith. Through the movement of the camera, even the two parallel sections were unified in a heterogeneous space, without physical intersection, but linked the fate of...

It is still well evaluated by George Sadur. It is obviously overrated and has no vivid characters. Compared with it, "The White Rose of the Railway" is more emotionally clear and moving, and it is technically a great...

333min version; five stars must be given, I enjoyed watching it very much; of course, from the current perspective of the 1927 silent film blockbuster, there are still some places where I can complain. As far as I am concerned, the biggest dissatisfaction is the plot, The five and a half hours of presentation feels a little too little, and it takes too much time on some clues (maybe version 235 will delete some parts in my head that I think are unnecessary - did not feel tired looking at it,...

The 5 and a half hour version, the voluminous life is quite epic. Restricted by outdated film technology and language, it looks more like a movable ppt of translated literature. Just take a shot, and the tolerance is extremely high. Anyway, there are narrations, which is not troublesome. There is no mellowness of the story, and it is more inclined to literary films. Audiences who have not read biographies still cannot understand it. The actor is very temperamental and does not get angry or...

The five-and-a-half-hour repaired version of the picture quality can’t be said. From a technical point of view, this film represents the highest level of silent film, such as those more mature push-pull and traverse shooting, monochrome dyeing and printing, nine-grid split screen, and a lot of soft-focus photography. And the most jaw-dropping three-screen simultaneous screening. And the purpose of this screen splicing is not only the panoramic view, but also the practice of montage methods...

The most magnificent film of the last 1920s, exhausting the capabilities of silent films, is absolutely "unprecedented before, and no one since." Without the final triptych, it is also a perfect work, and it is even more amazing after seeing the ending. Gance's later color films have only their appearance, and it is difficult to match such a spirit and...

Ah, this is that godlike three-screen version of Napoleon, OMG. . . Those scenes are truly...

Gance's movies are basically more than five hours long, and they are still silent movies, which are tiring to watch. The picture captured by the final wide-screen triple lens is really shocking. People of that era will be even more shocked when they see such a wide-screen scene. The eagle is used as a metaphor for Napoleon to show his legendary half life, but the actor does not know why, and the appearance is not pleasing. The most used metaphor in the film is the overprint metaphor. On the...

When a biopic needs to constantly use the so-called "true speech" to push the blueprint of a character's life backwards, I feel less confident. You will be curious about whether history chose heroes, or whether people became heroes after adapting to the times. The shooting angle of this film itself is to shoot this character as a hero, so in the end, when the hero stands alone on the top of the mountain, it has its own shock, but even after more than five hours, I don’t think so. It will feel...

I once downloaded a version of "Supplementary Standard", and then gave up (refer to Mtime.com's post). Now I see someone mention it again, and I just remembered to read it...
